By FLORENCE JENKINS a lnt nf nenDle around town to day are wondering just what Bill Davis did to win a jio.ooo u.a. Savings Bond as top prize in the AC Spark Plug Division of Gen eral Motors Corporation AC Sell ing Slants Jackpot contest. His sales promotion idea which won the contest is more than a eimmick. It represents the habit of thoughtful service to his custo mers as well as making a Dia lor repeat business. He describes it this way: "When a customer comes in for new spark plugs, we put in new AC Spark Plugs and make him a gift of two spares to use in case of emergency. We have little boxes made up to hold two used spark plugs which have been cleaned and spaced. 'The top of the box has a label reading 'This is just another serv ice of Bill Davis' Flying A Sta tion, 2101 South Sixth Street, Klam ath Falls.' " He takes the speedometer read ing and fills in the blanks which designate the reading at which the driver should have his spark plugs checked and cleaned and the read ing at which the spark plugs should be replaced, adding 5,000 miles in the first blank and 10,000 in the second blank to the reading. "The customer will usually toss the little box into the jockey box of his car," Davis remarked, "but he'll run across it every once in a while and he'll check to see if it is time to clean or change his spark plugs. And he'll remember we gave him a usable spare in case one goes bad and he needs a replacement. Davis was born at Fort Worth, Texas, and came to Klamath Falls 18 years ago. He set up in the service station business at his pres ent location when South Sixth Street was a one-lane, black-topped highway and there weren't many sidewalks beyond the city limits Ten years ago he and Thelma North of Klamath Falls were mar ried and she assists in the busi ness. They have no children. Davis revealed today that Mrs Davis also entered the contest which drew a total of some 300, 000 entries across the nation. She1 has received a letter from the R. H.
